### Prerequisites [_prerequisites_15]
To use `text_similarity_reranker`, you can rely on the preconfigured `.rerank-v1-elasticsearch` inference endpoint, which is based on [Elastic Rerank](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/machine-learning/current/ml-nlp-rerank.html) and serves as the default if no `inference_id` is provided. This model is optimized for reranking based on text similarity. If you'd like to use a different model, you can set up a custom inference endpoint for the `rerank` task using the [Create {{infer}} API](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/operation/operation-inference-put). The endpoint should be configured with a machine learning model capable of computing text similarity. Refer to [the Elastic NLP model reference](docs-content://explore-analyze/machine-learning/nlp/ml-nlp-model-ref.md#ml-nlp-model-ref-text-similarity) for a list of third-party text similarity models supported by {{es}}.

You have the following options:
* Use the built-in [Elastic Rerank](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/operation/operation-inference-put) cross-encoder model via the inference APIs {{es}} service. For an example of creating an endpoint using the Elastic Rerank model, refer to [this guide](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/infer-service-elasticsearch.html#inference-example-elastic-reranker).
* Use the built-in [Elastic Rerank](docs-content://explore-analyze/machine-learning/nlp/ml-nlp-rerank.md) cross-encoder model via the inference APIs {{es}} service. See [this example](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/infer-service-elasticsearch.html#inference-example-elastic-reranker) for creating an endpoint using the Elastic Rerank model.
* Use the [Cohere Rerank inference endpoint](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/operation/operation-inference-put) with the `rerank` task type.
* Use the [Google Vertex AI inference endpoint](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/operation/operation-inference-put) with the `rerank` task type.
* Upload a model to {{es}} with [Eland](eland://reference/machine-learning.md#ml-nlp-pytorch) using the `text_similarity` NLP task type.
